Am I Having a Bad Day?
Ever have a day when you wish you hadn't been born? Of course you have! Everyone has dark days, even celebrities!

Yet despite their ubiquity, many people are loathe to admit they are having a bad day rather than simply an "off-day" or a "Mon-day." How do you know if you're having a legitimate my-sister-is-addicted-to-heroin-and-my-new-CD-isn't-selling kind of bad day? Take this easy true/false quiz and find out! Good luck.

Did you answer yes to 10 or more of the above? It is very likely that you are having a bad day. People who are having a bad day often do not get along with anyone. They especially do not get along with people who are having a good day, people with whom they are having sex, or people who try to be helpful in a retail environment. Men who are having a bad day are prone to road rage and heavy drinking. Women just tend to buy French fries and pointy-toed shoes.
